“What is there not to like? Shoes are like diamonds for us. This is like a candy store!” says Sanela Gajic, the friendly sales associate with a passion for footwear. Kick Ass Shoes pleases its many customers with lines from Marc Jacobs, Stuart Weitzman, John Fleuvog and Betsey Johnson, which are “fun for the younger generation,” says Gajic. But the guys are missing out as KAS no longer carries men’s shoes, because it seems the market just isn’t there. “If there is a demand I’m sure our owner would be happy to again,” says Gajic. 5457 Spring Garden, 444-7527
